Marine Services

Innerspace Watersports certified scuba diving staff is busy year round in the Okanagan offering a variety of Marine Services.

Private Buoys – The Private Buoy Regulations (PBR) apply to all private buoys and to make sure that they meet Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) standards. The Minister of Transport, Infrastructure and Communities may require changes to a private buoy, such as size or adding retro-reflective material, when there is a need for improved visibility or better identification. Buoys need to be adequately anchored to ensure they are fixed in position.

Private Buoys Identification – All private buoys must display, on two opposite sides, the capital letters “PRIV”. These letters are to be as large as practical for the size of the buoy and contrasting in colour (white when the background colour is red, green or black, and black when the background colour is white or yellow). In addition, the buoy owner’s current name, address and telephone number must be easy to read, in a permanent manner. Download: Owner’s Guide to Private Buoys…
